A High Performance LDS (linear drive system) for the KST X08 servo.

I would have zero qualms installing this LDS system in a dynamic soaring ship (many folks already have and with great success); anything else will be a walk in the park for this system.

The servo trays have an outboard ball bearing that helps to carry the servo shaft loads and greatly reduces servo play. The unique servo arm is designed so that it has tons of clearance, no more grinding your clevis' for maximum throw. The servo arm then connects to a strong control rod which connects to a double carbon fork epoxied inside of the control surface, this results in massive throws while the whole system is contained within the wing. Aerodynamically clean and slop free.

There are a number of ratios available. As the builder you will need to make your own decision as to which ratio to choose. The different ratios are presented like this for example: 6.35mm / 5.83mm. The first number 6.35mm is the "servo arm length" which is the distance from the center of the servo output shaft to the hole in the servo arm. The second number 5.83mm is the "control horn height" which in this case is the distance from the bottom of the horn to the connecting rod hole.

Studying the parts kit, you will find exceptionally well machined components; the CNC parts are beautiful, the anodizing is clean, resulting in a very good fit and finish. The kit is well thought out and very complete (even includes sand paper and super glue for assembly). You are given a choice for your pushrod assembly, you can use the included carbon rods to create exact length push rods or you can make adjustable length pushrods using the included threaded rod. The designer has proven that the carbon pushrod assembled using super glue can withstand 220lbs in tension. The servo frame parts are machined from 3.5mm thick carbon and the control horns are machined from 1.7mm carbon. Beefy stuff.

Another aspect of these servo frames that we liked is that they will fit into smaller servo pockets than other larger servo frames in this class. The servo pushrods are connected to the servo drive and control horn using machined pins that accept e-clips at both ends for retention. The kit includes extra e-clips in case some get lost. FYI, the designer has created an e-clip installation tool to make it much easier to install the clips. I have used it and it works very well. On the other hand removing them will require some patience.

Below is a video you can watch to learn how these kits are assembled.

      Satisfied my need.
      Color: Black, Size: 1.37" without hook
      Easy to install and my laptop fits solidly. I have a work laptop, tower and my personal laptop. I hated how busy my home office desk looked. Moved my personal laptop underneath and made a big difference.

      Good mounts but needs a quality improvement with the padding adhesive
      Color: White, Size: 1.37" without hook, Color: White, Size: 1.37" without hook
      Needs stronger padding. Falling off the next day. Press on, but comes off again. I should not have to apply my own glue, but it's likely what will be needed.

      Desk Space Saver—Highly Recommend
      Color: White, Size: 1.37" without hook
      This under-desk laptop mount is exactly what I needed to declutter my workspace. I used to leave my laptop on the desk or shuffle it around, but now it’s neatly tucked away and easily accessible. Installation was simple—just a few screws and it was ready to go. The mount holds my 14" laptop securely, and the padding inside prevents scratches. I love that I can slide it in and out without hassle, and it frees up valuable desk space for my monitor and documents. If you're looking to streamline your setup, this is a smart and affordable upgrade.

      Solid Floating Shelves 🛠️🏠
      Color: Black, Number Of Shelves: 4, Size: 15.7in
      I have installed four sets of the black floating shelves in my office. They are made of high quality materials, featuring a sophisticated black woodgrain finish with a natural texture. Supposedly, each unit can handle up to 22 pounds, though I would not recommend testing that limit with your vintage bowling ball collection if you value your flooring. They are awesome. The value is good for a set of two. Each shelf measures 22x7x1 (56x17x3 cm) inches, providing a decent amount of storage for books or decor. The installation was straightforward since the hardware for multiple wall types was included. They work well in the kitchen for spices or in the bedroom for personal belongings. One tip for a secure fit: use a level during installation and make sure the bracket is flush against the wall before sliding the shelf on, or your photos might look like they are sliding off a mountain 📐 These shelves offer a clean, modern look and stay stable once mounted correctly. They are a practical choice for adding functional display space to any room 🖼️
